A nano is born


....but just barely. This is a 10 gal. Lights are Coralife 96 watt pc with the quad bulb. 13.5# LR (need more). And 15# aragonite. The water is still a bit cloudy but getting clearer daily.

Good start Rick -- After seeing your main tank I know this will be an awesome tank in the end.

You never did reply to my post about Sept. 27th --- your not trying to avoid the subject ??? --- Maybe your just scared of a box of baggies ?? LOL

Yeah I meant to PM you. I'm fine with having a meeting here but I'm not sure about Saturdays. Baseball will be cranked back up by then and we're sure to have a Saturday game. Would a Sunday work?

Rick,

Knowing you, I'm sure that your nano will turn out to be great and as spectacular as you main tank!

Here's to much success!

Yup I knew it --- your main tank could use a box of baggies.

Will put you down for a Sunday. We are trying to alternate between Sat and Sun. Sept needs to be a Sat so maybe we'll shoot for the one after that.
